Chevy has been making pickups since 1930, the Chevrolet Silverado was officially introduced to the truck line in 1998. Not that the Silverado is a lot different than the standard Chevy pickups, Chevy simply needed a new trim level and model to entice customers looking for fancy and HD all in one truck. Chevy complied with a new truck line, which was designed to directly compete with the growing market of luxurious, yet HD trucks.

FYI:“C” stands for 2 wheel drive: “K” stands for 4 wheel drive: “HD” stands for Heavy Duty. So, if you are searching for C/K/HD Chevy Silverado 3500 Engines For Sale, this may be helpful. The C, and K designations were dropped in the early ’90’s. Call 877-630-3873.

The Silverado is considered a light duty pickup truck, built on the GMT800 platform a variety of V6 engines and V8 engines are available. Chevy makes HD versions, Hybrid models, Vortec High Output/Vortec Max Intimidator Max, Chevrolet Silverado SS, and Sierra/Denali models derived from this chassis.

Vortec is Chevy’s trade name for a family of V8 engines built from 1988 on. The first official Vortec engine was in 1988, the 4.3 liter Vortec V6.
